With Solr, you are making HTTP calls across the network, serializing requests and de-serializing responses. So the comparison is not exactly apples to apples. Look at what Solr offers -- replication, caching, plugins etc. Will you really need to go over 2500 requests per second? Do you need to be concerned with performance above and beyond that? Will it be easier to scale out to more boxes? -- Regards, Shalin Shekhar Mangar.
